Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has dismissed insinuations that some powerful individuals are influencing President Bola Tinubu’s government.
Wike led this out at the 2025 Obafemi Awolowo University Distinguished Personality Lecture in Ile-Ife, Osun State on Thursday.
The former governor of Rivers State stated that all ex- Nigerian presidents, including Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, were not bold enough to remove the petrol subsidy and unify the foreign exchange rates.
He added that so many people would still be benefiting from fuel subsidy fraud had Tinubu not removed it.
Wike said: “He has shown that he has the courage. Under Tinubu, there is nothing like cabal. This is a president that is in charge. Let us leave for the next generation resolves and not regrets.

“He has shown in several ways and at different times, a stout commitment to the enthronement of democracy in our country, to the extent of even putting his own life on the line in the process.
“He has shown great capacity for engendering development as captured in the unprecedented rapid and exponential development of Lagos state under his watch and even beyond.”
